I need some ideas as to where to go or get the flicker circuits for lanterns, candles, etc. I've already been to monsterlist. Amazing I don't already have something in the stacks:rolleyes:

What kind of lights do you want to use - LED or incandescent?

I used this link. It was really easy once you get the hang of it.

I've already been to holloweenpropmaster. Not a bad site. I'm hoping for LEDs but will settle for incandenscents.

Why not just get a mess of those little LED flicker candles? If they aren't bright enough, you can swap in a new LED. They're cheap, too.

yeah! I have made both of those!
for a lantern use otakus led hack and use a 9 volt to save space if needed. I used this in my secret reaper prop (which i still cant post here, thanks to the slowpoke reaper) and it works great.

took a look at the other thread... pretty good. I'll pass it on to my friend who's doing the electrical work.
